PANTHERS: Mike Shula, who served as the team’s quarterbacks coach the past two seasons. has been named as the team’s new offensive coordinator.

Also, Richard Rodgers was named special teams coordinator after taking over that role on an interim basis last season and Ricky Proehl was promoted as the Panthers new wide receivers coach after working as an assistant in 2012.

JETS: Coming off a season of disappointment and dysfunction, New York started the rebuilding process by hiring Seattle Seahawks executive John Idzik as their new general manager.

Idzik, the fourth GM in Woody Johnson’s 13 years as owner, inherits a 6-10 team, a possible lame-duck coach, a lean roster with a handful of immovable contracts, and a polarizing quarterback in Tim Tebow.

Johnson said last week his plan was to give the next GM the final say on personnel matters.
